You are clearly , for reasons best known to yourself , motivated by malice . If you visited the cafe you would realise that you are wrong . Did you see her positive post in relation to the road closing for the tyre testing ? You evidently are a "know nothing little shit " who I'll warrant has achieved nothing in your sad life and cannot bear to see others succeed . Hope this helps

As far as I know no report of the incident has been made available to the public. The CoC notified marshals that riders would be returning to the grandstand counterclockwise ( has happened before with no probs , eg after DJ's incident). However:- Riders should , after a red flag ,return following a travelling marshal fore and aft ,at normal road speed under waved yellow's at all marshalling points . I'm told that this was part of the riders briefing . That said , while marshalling @ Black Hut a rider stopped ( ran out of fuel) , confirmed he had retired and while the marshals were in the hut went outside , fired up his bike and set off (on cold tyres !) without permission , he made about 100yds . Race control were informed . The marshals I know would never have permitted a rider to set off ( having stopped for any reason) without an explicit instruction from race control. I know that a Marshal @ Sulby Bridge put out a red flag to stop riders returning back down the course, stopped 2 , ( confirmed by a pic in local paper &I know the marshal involved) I understand the incident leading to the red flag had been resolved and involved a single rider with no other rider involved so there would appear to be no reason for the police to attend ( so no "blame" , no possible manslaughter charge) . I have dealt with 5 offs @ 'Casey's" including 2 fatals ( single bike incidents) and the police did not attend during the roads being closed. I am not apportioning blame to anyone as I don.t have all the facts , just stating what I do know . I have contacted the CoC and others in relation to the 2 fatalities @ Caseys , in both cases the riders went in early and the initial point of impact was a culvert pipe ( and it's subsequent remains/ large rocks ) in the gully adjacent to the raised curb on the bend . The riders who went in late ( survived) were thrown onto the banking . I was advised by the CoC that there was no perceived danger and no 'cushioning' was necessary . I note that the gully was filled in with large granite rocks but latterly dug out again and Imo more of a hazard as rocks have replaced the sod/moss bank now further down the course . I have also ventured to suggest that riders who went 'off' @ Black Hut (7 if memory serves) 3 suffered with severe lower leg trauma as a result of coming into contact with the vertically sloping wall at the start of the bend which could, IMO, be alleviated by the installation of boarding . I chose ( as an Ex H&S enforcing inspector ,across) not to continue marshalling ( my job was looking after the rider , with a medic if we had one ). If , god forbid , history repeats itself I couldn't face the relatives of the deceased rider and again have to choose to be compassionate rather than honest when asked "what happened ?". My only reason for posting the above is to improve rider safety at my former marshalling points

The "Isle of Man TT Marshals Association " ceased to be , without consulting it's 400-600 marshal voting 'members ' and replaced by the "TT marshals ltd " which had 2 voting members thus giving the marshals absolutely no say in anything TT/MGP related . At a EGM of the former TTMA the meeting was advised by a Mr Crellin(sp?) that the new organisation would be more democratic having 2 voting members approved by the Motorsport Team / CoC. No indication of the assets/liabilities of the TTMA ltd were provided at the EGM. The Motorsport team and the CoC now have absolute control of every aspect of the TT/MGP . Many local marshals voted with their feet as they perceive that the new organisation is run under military rules ( you obey orders/instructions without question, and shut up ) and any marshal offering any opinion/criticism will be disciplined/sacked ( see CSM Sector 9 and latterly Sector 10), at the whim of the CoC. I no longer marshal, the principal reason being the cavalier attitude to rider safety taken by the CoC ( see previous posts on MF). Just saying

I was told 8 years ago that I needed 2 new hips ,still waiting , on the upside I did get a letter a week or so back asking me if I still wanted to remain on the waiting list . My GP has (I'm told ), kept Nobles aware of my 'situation'. I anticipate that I will have to go across , 'private' at £15K a pop , pity that they don't do 'private' on the island and benefit from the income stream and the post operative convalescent care costs benefitting the Island . Had a chat with someone @ Nobles who claimed the hospital "had all the gear" ( confirmed by the gastro team @ L'pool who advised me the kit @ Nobles was far superior to the endoscopy gear they had . Just saying

Err , "extended" trips , to visit all the battle sites , he gave a talk about it . I stand to be corrected but it's claimed that his delay in returning to IOM added an extra airfare cost ( in addition to the paracetamol and suncream ) . He did explain that the ozone layer was thinner there though. just saying

"Rob" now asks for views on Face Book ? He previously stated that Face Book views were irrelevant and would not be considered in relation to his planned destruction of the TT Scoreboard . He really does want his penny and his bun! Just saying

I could point you to a property , occupied by a retired couple, comprising 5 bedrooms 9 (all en suite) with a 2 bed ( en suite) flat on the lower ground floor.. just saying , hope this helps

What a disgusting post. Saved if only to demonstrate what depths this self confessed sadist will stoop to to delight in the deaths of innocent women and children .

I was referring to the TT 'sidecar celebration'

Where did HeliX say what you claim ? Personally I think the mods should ban you for posting scurrilous lies . You really are an odious little brat. Hope this helps

One could be forgiven for thinking that he has no incentive/interest for TT/MGP to succeed as an event and is more interested in cycling events if he is 'the big cheese' in the 'Grand Fondu' as some claim. just saying

Sounds the standard procedure , as evidenced by the powers that be's determination to cancel "Jurby Day" ( April if memory serves). "deliberate " ? perhaps because they were embarrassed that the local branch of the VMCC ( bunch of pensioner motorcycle enthusiasts ) could organise and run a financially successful well attended event whereas the best they could do with a £2 million + budget was get 3 modern sidecars to do a lap . Would the offer of 5% to an individual have made a difference? Just saying

Have to say I do not always agree with you but on this thread I do , pointless arguing with PK ( PK demonstrably doesn't 'think' ) . Just saying

Unpleasant? perhaps but if you have had seen the way this company has behaved and made someone's life a misery for a couple of years making ludicrous assertions and claims before dropping the action it's entirely understandable IMO . The individual concerned was representing himself and would have been ruined and lost everything . Hope this helps

On 26/8/2023 I paid ( @ the desk ) £20 for parking for up to 24 hrs . It would seem that Guernsey is catching up with the IOM . Just saying

Max , I understood the ACU training course instructed marshals how to deal with casualties , I am pleased to see that it is now accepted that there may be situations where " the rider can not be moved". That said I would venture to suggest that the idea to get injured riders to Nobles asap was sound however the concept of "bringing the hospital to the patient" can result in unfortunate delays eg when David Linsdel (SP)and Bernie Wright (SP?) had their off @ 'Black Hut' the helicopter was on the ground for well over an hour while the doc could not decide who should be go in the helicopter first ( as I'm told 2 riders cannot be taken at the same time) . It was an evening practice ( not red flagged) and the riders were roadside beginning to suffer from hypothermia (IMO) and the marshals (reassuring them that they hadn't been forgotten) were a tad chilled . I emailed the CoC in relation to the 5 "offs" ( including sadly 2 fatals )@ Caseys and a request that perhaps safety fencing could be provided , his reply indicated that he did not see there was a problem . To be fair I now accept that some modifications to the adjacent trackside to mitigate the situation to a degree. just saying

I'm afraid I don't believe you , perhaps you could specify where you witnessed these incidents you claimed . FWIW I have witnessed 12 "offs" and assisted the paramedic when we had one otherwise I was on my own with the rider. Your broad assertion that "marshals haven't got a clue and run around flapping " is offensive and untrue. Out or the 12 , 2 were "fatals" ,neither of which fitted your description of the aftermath of a "fatal" and both were a result of the initial point of impact trauma . I no longer marshal as I feel the CoC has a cavalier attitude to rider safety ( see my previous posts ) and I do not accept the instruction that irrespective of the circumstances riders should be dragged off the road and 'rolled' onto a 'scoop stretcher' . I have yet to meet a paramedic who would agree with that instruction and not split the scoop stretcher when a rider clearly may have leg/pelvic/ internal injuries . A number of local marshals opted not to marshal because they could not , as required by the ACU / CoC obey ( without question), adopt and applaud all the decisions / instructions of the COC . Failure to do so would involve the diciplinary procedure and being told your services were no longer required ( see the sacking of the CSM Sector 10 by the CoC when (comically), he actually had no authority as he held no position in the IOMTT MA , but later apparently ratified (?) ) I think the "cock" you refer to is in fact you blade runner. hope this helps . Just saying

I suspect that will be sufficient for a ban . Is it any wonder that many now chose not to post . I thought JW was bad enough ( BTW banned me for "spamming" 🤣) , but the present mods have exceeded even my wildest expectations😂 , seldom a dry leg in this house when reading the drivel of the sites 'Marco Polo' bragging about his travels and overseas property portfolio , someone who claims to be a politician and not forgetting the 'Brexit bore '..... bless

Just expressing an opinion on what I have witnessed . I no longer marshal and take the view that to remain silent is to be complicit . TBH I suspect my services would " no longer be required ", as I have been described as a "troublemaker", based on the treatment the former CSM ( sector 10) for expressing a view contrary to that of the ACU .

Very true , at "Casey's" on the mountain hit the curb early and the point of impact was/is the culvert in the gully behind the curb /the remains of the culvert pipe and the rocks in the gully (the gully has now been infilled with large rocks without a permeable smooth finish. Hit the curb late and the rider will fly over the former gully and onto the banking . That said the powers that be have taken the fencing further back so less chance of a rider hitting it and installed a chamfered curb but if the initial point of impact is the rocks in the gully sadly it will IMO ( as history has proved ) result in a third fatality . Just saying

Just hoping they don't leave the digger in the road Rox

An EGA was called by the IOMTTMA ltd on 9th Feb ( attended by many 'members' including myself) which was adjourned until the 2nd March as two information was available on the companies assets and liabilities. The members voted for an adjournment and expressed the view of their dissatisfaction with the proposal that the IOMTTMA be folded and replaced by the TTMA ltd which would comprise 2 members ( approved by government). The rescheduled EGA did not take place and members of the IOMTTMA ltd were notified in Dec 22 that the company will cease to exist on 31 Dec 22. That is precisely what happened. I would be grateful for information on this "embargo" you refer to ? I would venture to suggest that the members of a company should be the ones who decide if the company should voluntarily fold , Perhaps the directors were consulted about the changes but the members certainly were not , neither were serving marshals. Your assertion that I have a " beef" is without foundation and by your own admission ("whatever happened") you have demonstrated your ignorance , hence my post explaining what happened .

There was an EGA of the IOMTTMA Ltd which was adjourned when members voted against it being wound up , it was then adjourned again and members were subsequently advised that it was wound up on 31Dec 22 . The company did not change it's structure it was folded without reference to it's members and replaced by a new company , the TTMA ltd. Perhaps before posting inaccurate information you should check facts . hope this helps

when the TTMALtd was set up there were 2 members ( 'ratified by IOM Gov ") who had voting rights . Just saying

The IOMTTMA ceased to exist on 31st Dec 2022 without consulting its members ( over 600 members ), it was replaced by the TTMA Ltd , having 2 members ( ratified by government . Marshals are not consulted , they are instructed . Hope this helps
